247 lists UNC as his leader ahead of Tennessee and GT with 100% of the CB's so far.

I don't have the answer to that.

Side note: Hes attending Fedora's freakshow on the 20th after he attends II.

Where he will receive his entire 4 year transcript / diploma so that he can get his resume together for the highly coveted booster jobs. Must be exciting to learn you got an A in Soc 401 a week after your HS graduation.

Zero italics.

In all seriousness, will they even have an Athletic Dept going forward? They don't deserve one.

Perhaps ND said no thanks? That's what the timing kinda suggests to me.

It actually was. The night of the Invasion before this decision was made BGI talked about this. The staff believes they can get DE's by the end of this. He was already a UNC lean but this isn't ND's side making this up, this was said before the decision.

Makes sense. If we didn't already have Okwara he might be a take.

Didn't he win an award at the Invasion?

How does that suggest ND told him no thanks? Could it be that he held off a commitment to UNC until he gave ND a shot, gave ND that shot and it wasn't for him and also finalizing his decision?

That has literally never worked out for us at this position other than the year we got Tuitt, Ishaq and he-who-shall-not-be-named

Tell me that Okwara, Kelly, and Beal doesn't sound amaze-balls.

I'm feeling you. If the kid gets an offer, why are we telling him no thanks?

If ND is telling him "not right now" could the UNC commitment be to hold a spot? We see recruits do it all the time for USC, Alabama, FSU, etc...why can't a recruit do the same for us? Commit to UNC so he has a spot and then, if we reach out to him later in the year with room he decommits and switched to ND.
